FEMALE TERMINAL AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
This application claims the benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. CN201420371706.4 filed on July 7, 2014 in the State Intellectual Property Office of China, the whole disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a female terminal and an electrical connector comprising the female terminal.
Description of the Related Art
Fig. la is an illustrative perspective view of a female terminal in the prior art; and Fig. lb is a cross section view of the female terminal of Fig. la.
As shown in Fig. la and Fig. lb, the female terminal 10 comprises an insertion slot 12, defined by four walls, in the front thereof, and a pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 13 formed in a pair of sidewalls 11 of the insertion slot 12. The pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 13 is configured to electrically contact a male terminal inserted into the insertion slot 12 of the female terminal 10.
During inserting the male terminal into the insertion slot 12 of the female terminal of Fig. la and Fig. lb, in order to ensure that the male terminal is smoothly inserted, the male terminal should be inserted in a posture parallel to a longitudinal direction of the female terminal 10.
However, as shown in Fig. lb, in the actual operation process, due to negligence, an operator often inserts the male terminal 20 in a posture oblique to the longitudinal direction of the female terminal 10. In this case, as shown in Fig. lb, the tip end of the male terminal 20 may directly push against the end of one of the electrical contact spring pieces 13, and cannot be inserted into a gap between the pair of electrical contact spring pieces 13, 13. As a result, the electrical contact spring piece 13 of the female terminal 10 may be collapsed and failed by the male terminal 20.
In order to solve the above technical problem of the female terminal 10 of Fig. la and Fig. lb in the prior art, there is provided a female terminal with guide spring pieces, for
example, as shown in Fig.2a and Fig.2b.
Referring to Fig.2a and Fig.2b, a pair of guide spring pieces 14', 14' are formed on a pair of opposite side edges of a front port of the insertion slot 12' of the female terminal 10'. Each of the guide spring pieces 14', 14' is bent toward inside of the insertion slot 12' from the side edge of the front port of the insertion slot 12', and obliquely extending toward rear of the insertion slot 12' . A pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 13', 13' are formed on a pair of sidewalls 11 ', 11 ' and obliquely extend toward front and inside of the insertion slot 12' .
As shown in Fig.2b, during inserting a male terminal 20' into the insertion slot 12' of the female terminal 10', a tip end of the male terminal 20' is guided by the pair of guide spring pieces 14', 14' and smoothly inserted into a gap between the pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 13', 13', and electrically contacts electrical contact portions of the pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 13', 13' .
In the female terminal 10' shown in Fig.2a and Fig.2b, even if the male terminal 20' is inserted into the insertion slot 12' of the female terminal 10' in a posture oblique to the longitudinal direction of the female terminal 10', the pair of guide spring pieces 14', 14' may guide the oblique male terminal 20' to the correct posture parallel to the longitudinal direction of the female terminal 10', so that the male terminal 20' is smoothly inserted into the gap between the pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 13', 13', and it protects the female terminal 10' from being collapsed and failed by the male terminal 20' .
However, in the female terminal 10' shown in Fig.2a and Fig.2b, the guide spring pieces 14', 14' are formed by additional tongues extending from the side edges of the front port of the insertion slot 12' of the female terminal 10', increasing the amount of material to manufacture the female terminal 10' . Furthermore, in the female terminal 10' shown in Fig.2a and Fig.2b, the width of the guide spring pieces 14', 14' is far larger than the width of the electrical contact spring pieces 13 ', 13', further increasing the amount of material to manufacture the female terminal 10' .
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE IVENTION
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in detail with reference to the attached drawings, wherein the like reference numerals refer to the like elements. The present disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and
should not be construed as being limited to the embodiment set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
In the following detailed description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed
embodiments. It will be apparent, however, that one or more embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices are schematically shown in order to simplify the drawing.
According to a general concept of the present invention, there is provided a female terminal, comprising: an insertion slot, defined by a top wall, a bottom wall and a pair of sidewalls, extending in a longitudinal direction of the female terminal; and a pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces, formed on the pair of sidewalls, respectively, each obliquely extending from a rear edge of an opening formed in the respective sidewall toward front and inside of the insertion slot, so as to electrically contact a male terminal inserted into the insertion slot, wherein the female terminal further comprises a pair of cantilever type guide spring pieces each obliquely extending from a front edge of the opening formed in the respective sidewall toward rear and inside of the insertion slot, so as to guide the male terminal to be inserted between the pair of electrical contact spring pieces.
Fig.3 is an illustrative perspective view of a female terminal 100 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in Fig.3, in the illustrated embodiment, the female terminal 100 mainly comprises an insertion slot 120, a pair of cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130, a pair of cantilever type guide spring pieces 140, 140, a pair of first side wings 101 and a pair of second side wings 102.
In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Fig.3, the insertion slot 120 is defined by a top wall 111, a bottom wall 112 and a pair of sidewalls 113, 113. The insertion slot 120 is formed to extend in a longitudinal direction Y of the female terminal 100.
As shown in Fig.3, the cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130 is arranged to face with the cantilever type guide spring pieces 140, 140, respectively. An opening 103 is formed in each of the sidewalls 113. One of the cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130 and one corresponding cantilever type guide spring pieces 140, 140 extend toward each other from a rear edge 103b and a front edge 103a of the opening 103, respectively.
Fig.4 is a cross section view of the female terminal 100 of Fig.3.
As shown in Figs.3 and 4, in the illustrated embodiment, a rear end (right end in Fig. 4) of each of the cantilever type electrical contact spring pieces 130 is connected to the rear edge 103b of the opening 103, and the cantilever type electrical contact spring piece 130 obliquely extends from a rear edge 103b of an opening 103 toward front (left side of Fig.4)
and inside of the insertion slot 120, so as to electrically contact a male terminal 200 (see Fig.5) inserted into the insertion slot 120.
Please referring to Figs.3 and 4 again, in the illustrated embodiment, a front end (left end in Fig. 4) of each of the cantilever type guide spring pieces 140, 140 is connected to the front edge 103 a of the opening 103. Each of the cantilever type guide spring pieces 140, 140 obliquely extends from a front edge 103a of the opening 103 toward rear (right side of Fig.4) and inside of the insertion slot 120, so as to guide the male terminal 200 (see Fig.5) to be inserted into a gap between the pair of electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130.
In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Fig.3, the pair of first side wings 101 are formed at rear of the insertion slot 120 and configured to be crimped on a conductor of a cable (not shown), so as to electrically connect the conductor of the cable.
Referring to Fig.3 again, in an embodiment, the pair of second side wings 102 are formed at rear of the pair of first side wings 101 and configured to be crimped on an outer sheath of the cable (not shown), so that a pulling force exerted on the cable is transferred to the female terminal 100 through the outer sheath of the cable, instead of being transferred to the conductor of the cable, so as to prevent the conductor of the cable from being pulled off.
Fig.5 is an illustrative cross section view of the female terminal 100 after a mating male terminal 200 is inserted into the insertion slot 120 of the female terminal 100 of Fig.3.
As shown in Figs.4 and 5, in an embodiment of the present invention, a distance LI between tips of free ends of the pair of guide spring pieces 140, 140 inside the insertion slot 120 is less than a distance L2 between tips of free ends of the pair of electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130 inside the insertion slot 120. In this way, as shown in Fig.5, it is possible to effectively prevent any one of the tips of the electrical contact spring pieces 130 of the female terminal 100 from being pressed against by a tip of the mating male terminal 200 during inserting the male terminal 200 into the female terminal 100. Thereby, the male terminal 200 may be correctly and smoothly inserted into the gap between the pair of electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130 under the guidance of the pair of guide spring pieces 140, 140 and sandwiched between electrical contact portions 130a, 130a of the pair of electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130, achieving a stable electrical connection between the male terminal 200 and the female terminal 100.
In the illustrated embodiment shown in Figs.3 -5, even if the male terminal 200 is inserted in an unsuitable posture oblique to the longitudinal direction Y of the female terminal 100, the pair of guide spring pieces 140, 140 may guide the oblique male terminal 200 to the correct posture parallel to the longitudinal direction Y of the female terminal 100. Thereby, the electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130 of the female terminal 100 cannot be collapsed and failed by the male terminal 200.
Referring to Figs.3-5 again, in an embodiment of the present invention, the distance LI between tips of the pair of guide spring pieces 140, 140 inside the insertion slot 120 is set
larger than a distance between the electrical contact portions 130a of the pair of electrical contact spring pieces 130, 130. In this way, it is possible to prevent the male terminal 200 from simultaneously contacting the pair of guide spring pieces 140, 140 and the pair of electrical contact portions 130a, 130a, reducing the insertion force, and facilitating the insertion of the male terminal 200.
Fig.6 is an illustrative view of expanding the female terminal 100 of Fig.3 into a single sheet of thin plate.
As shown in Figs.3 -6, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the female terminal 100 is folded by a single sheet of thin plate. As clearly shown in Fig.6, when the female terminal 100 is expanded into a single sheet of thin plate, the electrical contact spring piece 130 and the guide spring piece 140 on the same one sidewall 113 are aligned with each other in the longitudinal direction Y of the female terminal 100 and located in the opening 103 of the sidewall 113. That is, the electrical contact spring piece 130 and the guide spring piece 140 both are formed by a portion of the sidewall 113 within the opening 103, instead of being formed by a pair of additional tongues protruding from the most front end (a lower end in Fig. 6) of the pair of sidewalls. Thereby, it reduces the material for manufacturing the female terminal 100, saving the cost.
In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Fig.6, the electrical contact spring piece 130 has a width substantially equal to a width of the guide spring piece 140. A gap between the tips of the electrical contact spring piece 130 and the guide spring piece 140 on the same one sidewall 113 in the longitudinal direction Y of the female contact 100 is very small, or even equal to zero.
Referring to Fig.6 again, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the female terminal 100 is expanded into a single sheet of thin plate, a length of the guide spring piece 140 in the longitudinal direction Y is equal to 10%-35% of a length of the electrical contact spring piece 130 in the longitudinal direction Y. In this way, it is possible to ensure the electrical contact spring piece 130 has enough length, and ensure the electrical contact spring piece 130 has enough flexibility. Thereby, the male terminal 200 is allowed to be easily inserted into the female terminal 100 with small insertion force.
As shown in Fig.6, when the female terminal 100 is expanded into a single sheet of thin plate, the top wall 111 of the female terminal 100 comprises a first top wall portion 111a and a second top wall portion 111b formed at both sides of the single sheet of thin plate, respectively. As shown in Fig.3, when the single sheet of thin plate of Fig.6 is folded into the female terminal 100 of Fig.3, the first top wall portion 111a and the second top wall portion 11 lb are mated together to form the top wall 111 of the female terminal 100.
Although it is not shown, in another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there is also provided an electrical connector comprising an insulation housing and the above female terminal 100 received in the insulation housing.
It should be appreciated for those skilled in this art that the above embodiments are intended to be illustrated, and not restrictive. For example, many modifications may be made to the above embodiments by those skilled in this art, and various features described in different embodiments may be freely combined with each other without conflicting in configuration or principle.
